Subject: [PATCH] mailbox: txdone_method shouldn't always be reset
Date: Wed, 15 Nov 2017 21:31:26 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171116053126.28640-1-bjorn.andersson@linaro.org> (raw)

A client that knows how to drive txdone would temporarily "upgrade" the
method to TXDONE_BY_ACK. But with the introduction of commit 33cd7123ac0ba
("mailbox: reset txdone_method TXDONE_BY_POLL if client knows_txdone")
there is no longer a distinction between a channel in "upgraded" state
or a channel for a controller that only supports TXDONE_BY_ACK. So upon
freeing the channel it will be "downgraded" to TXDONE_BY_POLL.

But a channel that operates with the txdone method of TXDONE_BY_POLL
requires that the controller implements the last_tx_done callback and
that the associated hrtimer was initialized when the controller was
registered.

So the core now relies on the fact that subsequent calls to
mbox_request_channel() "upgrades" the channel to TXDONE_BY_ACK or it
will dereference the non-initialized hrtimer.

The intention of commit 33cd7123ac0ba ("mailbox: reset txdone_method
TXDONE_BY_POLL if client knows_txdone") is to not restart the hrtimer
when the channel is in an "upgraded" state. So this patch reverts the
commit, in order to never leave the channel is a invalid state, and
instead only start the timer when we're in the "non-upgraded" POLL
state.

Fixes: 33cd7123ac0ba ("mailbox: reset txdone_method TXDONE_BY_POLL if client knows_txdone")
